On this first day of April, amidst the ever-expanding chaos, we pause for a wee bit of happy news, forwarded to us by none other than the crown prince of Happiness Studies, Steven Pinker.
A study referenced today by the BBC appears to confirm, without even the slightest shadow of statistical doubt, that sleeping with an iPhone supports a “greater sensation of lasting happiness” than sleeping with a purring cat.
Indeed, those sleeping with their iPhone rank higher on an inflation-adjusted happiness scale than the good citizens of Finland, who rank #1 in happiness on the Global Happiness Scale.
Even a quick power nap with your iPhone is “likely to induce the required neurochemistry for happiness,” according to the peer-reviewed study.
On that note, back to the chaos.
